Traffic Sign Classification

This repository contains an adaptation of the LeNet architecture applied to traffic sign classification. Specifically, the goal was to design, train, validate, and test a convolutional neural network (CNN) architecture while experimenting with various image processing techniques to achieve reasonable results.

The code for this project is in the IPython Notebook and you can dive into the details of what I did by reading the write-up.

The final model (built using Tensorflow) was based on the LeNet architecture with additional dropouts added. The final model achieved:

  • Training Set Accuracy: ~99.8%
  • Validation Set Accuracy: ~95%
  • Test Set Accuracy: ~94%

The model architecture is as follows:
